Lamb Lemon Meatballs

Another variation on meatballs, people. These are excellent - the lamb goes so well with lemon, and since they don’t have any breadcrumbs, they’re more dense and less fluffy than some other versions. (And also gluten-free, by the way.) The secret ingredient - quark, or kesella as it’s called here. I used it just because I happened to have some but it was actually excellent and made the balls hold together really well. I can really recommend giving it a try - ricotta might give you similar results if you can’t find quark.
Oh, and Titus loved these!
